1.3 [Newbie Friendly] GROUNDSLAMMER BUILD

Or is life gain on hit simply not worth it later on?

Lets simplify by using 1 mob as an example, and simplify the numbers a little bit.

You ground slam a mob for 2.500 damage. Your life leech gem leeches 5% of that. You healed 125 HP. 125 HP or 30 HP, what's more appealing? The life gain on hit starts making only a little to no difference at a certain point.

I love that people tend to answer question replacing me. This helps to maintain time to patch the guide.

What can I do, I'm a theorycrafter by soul and I like helping people. The forums need some order brought into them, and we cannot expect the mods to keep everything in shape; especially considering how crowded the forums are these days. So it is up to each individual user to contribute to keep the forums neat.

Well then, thanks for your answers. Okay, I see, it is simply not worth it at a higher damage time.

Concentrated effect looks yummy.

Also keep in mind socket space IS pretty valuable. Assuming you can even find a six-slot fully linked item, If you are going to support auras you will also need to make space for a blood magic gem.

I've gotten up to here:
I don't know which path is the best path to take for PVP?

I have 7 points left I don't know what to do with it?

I am still stuck chosing which path to take, i heard that IR is no good anymore since they changed some stuff.

Okay, I made a public trading post thread in the trading forum. I'll be managing that bit and trying to keep it as clean and updated as possible. If you can, I'd appreciate it If you would link it from the first post, next time you get to updating your guide. If you have any suggestions, let me know!

Hi guys. So i've been wathing this guide and try to cater the skills a bit to my liking. Currently i'm at Cruel act 2 with my lvl 42. The thing is, idk whats wrong with my build but i killing those elites and bosses quite slow and they hit me hard. Without regen totem its quite hard to tank them.

Can anyone point out whats wrong with my build? Or maybe i need to change my playstyle? Normally i go to mob pack and Ground Slam them and finish them off with Heavy Strike. If things going bad, i pop up regen totem and running around. I also use Warlords Mark to increase the life leech from mobs.

This is my current passive skill.

Whats your gear? You will need life on hit linked to ground slam and your gear needs lots of max life and life Regen you cant rely on passives alone. Are you using a 2h weapon? If not then that is your problem. Armour is also a big factor although its wise to pass up a little more Armour for more life/life Regen you should still have armor heavy gear.

For now my gear is



i think my problem is my armor. o_0
